Extreme Long Range Clinic

LRU Overview

Long Range University exists for the specific purpose of helping you make quick ethical one shot kills in the field. The core of our content is contained in our L1, L2, and L3 classes which utilize a building block approach to provide education and training in every factor which impacts your lethal hit probability. Interwoven throughout all three classes is a training strategy which will improve your ability to function under pressure and significantly extend the range and conditions under which you can take an ethical shot. At Long Range University you will learn to recognize when the conditions are not suitable to ensure a lethal hit. 


You will use our Gunwerks Shooting systems during the L1 and L2 classes, however what you learn will apply to any long range shooting system. Using a Gunwerks rifle system and ammunition for this course facilitates and accelerates the learning process. This allows you to focus on the core class content and leave equipment concerns to the instructor. Put wear and tear on our rifle not yours.


In our L3 class we encourage you to bring your personal rifle regardless of manufacturer. This is where you really learn the capability and limits of your “system” which includes you and your marksmanship ability, your rifles capability, your ballistic program, and your ability to compensate for wind and other environmental conditions, all in a realistic mountain hunting environment.


Our Classes

  • L1 Long Range Ballistics

  • L2 Advanced Ballistics and Wind

  • L3 Mountain Shooting Application


Our L1, L2, and L3 classes must be taken in sequential order and provide a comprehensive learning experience. We also offer “Clinics'' which are a deep dive into a specific topic or weapon system. There are no prerequisite classes to attend any of our Clinics.

The ultimate in training is live field application.

Experience Overview

At Long Range University we have a laser focus on equipment and techniques which are functional and applicable in the real world of mountain hunting. We make one exception for our ELR (Extreme Long Range) Clinic. This course is all about pushing the limits on extreme long range target engagements. We run this clinic at our Sheep Mountain facility. Here you will learn the advanced ballistic knowledge to engage targets to 2000 yards and beyond. This clinic is intended for the Gunwerks HAMR rifle however any Gunwerks Magnus or Verdict with a suitable optic is capable of getting hits at 2000 yards and beyond. We encourage you to bring your own rifle however he do have a limited number of Verdicts in 28 Nosler and 300 PRC available to rent. Please select the appropriate tab during registration.

Location

Sheep Mountain Range

Cody, Wyoming
Our Sheep Mountain Training facility is located approximately 30 minutes West of Cody in the Absaroka Mountains. Nestled in the heart of the Absaroka Mountains the rugged terrain offers breathtaking views of Buffalo Bill Reservoir and combined with the unpredictable weather patterns in the area, make for a realistic and challenging training environment. This location offers significant mountain wind conditions, steep terrain, practical shooting platforms, and extreme long range target opportunities. We've been training long range hunting for over 15 years and this is one of our favorite field shooting ranges! Sheep Mountain is the ultimate location to prep for your next mountain hunt.

If your course requires access to the upper platforms, we use brand new Jeep Wrangler 4X4 vehicles to transport people and equipment to the ultra-rugged shooting stations. For most of the courses and competitions we hold at this location, we prefer the students to use their equipment as an opportunity to gain confidence while stress testing personal gear. The Jeeps are setup with bed caps and truck vaults to safely store your equipment while traveling.

Some courses will be based solely on the lower deck. Students will be allowed to drive their vehicles to the site.

We hope you enjoy shooting the Sheep Mountain Range as much as we do!
